Texas Tech coach Tommy Tuberville says they will use a tight end about 15 to 20 plays per game next season. Adam James and converted defensive end Ryan Haliburton have been working out at the position this spring.

James is obviously the pass catcher of the two, but he is officially an inside receiver on the Texas Tech roster. Tue, Mar 30, 2010 12:00:00 PM

ESPN ombudsman Don Ohlmeyer claims the network may not have been fair in its coverage of the Mike Leach / Adam James situation. "News decisions in these cases must not be resolved by asking 'What's permissible for the employee?' but rather 'What's fair to the audience?'" Ohlmeyer said.

Ohlmeyer is obviously referencing the apparent bias in ESPN's reporting of the story due to the fact that James' father, Craig James, is an ESPN broadcaster. Thu, Jan 21, 2010 08:00:00 PM

Texas Tech has fired head coach Mike Leach. Leach was previously suspended for the treatment of wide receiver Adam James.

Leach's relationship with athletic director Gerald Myers was on thin ice as it was and it looks like the James' incident gave Myers the opportunity get rid of Leach. You can expect this to get uglier before it gets better, I don't see Leach taking this news lying down. Wed, Dec 30, 2009 05:00:00 PM
